Ok so I did predict the ending (of both the book and the book-within-the-book) but I still enjoyed the story.

An expertly-written “book within a book” where the stories converge in a shocking way! Definitely read it!

I finished this book so quickly! Usually I’m not a fast reader but I flew through this one. Loved it! Highly recommend. Can’t wait to read more from this author!

I found the premise compelling at first, but my attention was lost halfway through, and by the final twist, I cared more about just getting the book finished than I did about any character’s fate.

Was able to predict whodunit as soon as we met them. It was an easy read otherwise.

This book kept me guessing! I'm not much of a mystery reader because I can usually guess the plot twist, but this book surprised me in a lot of ways. The story was interesting and I wanted to keep reading. I felt like the plot was pretty original. And the narrative was believable. I would read this author again. 4.25/5 stars
